Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, IL1B Mutation is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated IL1B data layer compared with 27 for mass-spec protein and 2 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), where higher IL1B Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated IL1B expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.
LIHC, SKCM, and LUAD are the cancer types where IL1B Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
